They are strong, determined, extremely playful, and also gentle with babies and young children; making them excellent companions for families.

Best Boxer Dog Names
One of the best, and most obvious, ways to name your Boxer dog is to name them after a famous boxer.
Not only do they share the same title, but the qualities and traits of these dogs often resemble that of a boxer in the ring: both are expected to be tough, strong, and determined.
The Boxer dog is related to the extinct Bullenbeisser dog, which used to hunt wild boar, meaning that these goofy, saggy-faced canines aren’t so far away from the tough and hard-hitting professions of heavy-weight boxers.
All the monikers in this list are inspired by the best and most talented boxers in history, and would make a great choice for your boxer dog!
